I have run scandskw,every conceivable virus and spy program,registry
checkers and deframented the drive. The win'98 system works fine
but I can't upgrade to xp no matter what I do, and I always get the
above blue screen after win xp setup completes.

What else can I do? Thanks.

Format and start fresh.
I wouldn't want (personally) the leftovers from an old Windows 98 install
floating about anyway. =)
